Completely removing gnome from ubuntu.

I use terminal only versions of ubuntu on several vm's that I have set up. Maybe I should use something else, like just plain debian with no gui, but either way I was looking for a way to completely remove all gnome elements from my virtual machines. In the end I found a LONG command that just lists all the gnome elements to send to the apt-get remove command... seems like there should be something more elegant...

The commands are here, but it needs to be noted to remove the `&& sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop` from the end of the commands.
